Three sleepless nights 

this isn't how it's supposed to be 

but you're so good at taking your time 

to get back to me 



I will wait for you forever 

if you would just ask me 

I thought that I could change you 

but you changed me 



It doesn't feel right holding someone else's hand 

Together on phone lines and living at two opposite ends 



It scares me to think that you could find takers 

Other than me

And better than me 



But your head, it's elsewhere 

And I'm talking enough for both of us 

When will you see it's not so easy for me 



You're careless and whispered

insulting and bruising 

And I thought that you said 

things were improving 

These laces are untied 

but my feet are still walking away

Away

(I fall from your eyes.  Your eyes I trusted.  You said forever.)



I never thought that you could say these words 

Is this really happening? 



I never thought that you could say these words 

Is this really happening? (don't say...) 



I never thought that you could say these words 

is this really happening? (don't say that we...) 



I never thought that you could say these words 

Is this really happening? (don't say that we can still be...) 



I never thought that you could say these words 

Is this really happening? (don't say that we can still be friends) 



Erase my name from this page



How can you take all these days (What is inside me? What have I done?)

And throw them away (is this the only way that you'll notice me?) 

as i sit here waiting for you (Dead words for closed ears all this is sung for you)

I stay up nights (If you are still pretending this is what's right)

until stars leave the sky (why can't you look at me can you only see)

Knowing what my dreams can take away (one side, your side, can take away) 



Walk away from me

This night is done.
